"Eingangsthor zum Gehöft des Präses. Links eine Sisal-Pflanze and den Säulen Passionsblumen. Hinter der Frau mit Bambus-Milchgefäss auf dem Kopf die untere Station mit Vorsteher-Wohnung." ("Entrance gate of the compound of the head of the church assembly. On the left, a sisal plant passionflowers at the pillars. Behind the woman with a bamboo milk vessel on her head, the lower [mission] station with the chairman's apartment."). Two brick pillars with a bamboo cane lying across on their tops and passionflowers winding down from the left one function as an entrance gate. A woman, carrying a baby on her back and a vessel on her head, is standing at the gate through which tile-roofed houses are visible behind bushes and trees. The gate is sided by trees and a sisal plant on the left. Cf. photo no. 1652 or/and 1655/Nyasa 2 (?). -- 1 photo included from the box of duplicates.
